I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Stay with the 96-98 Front end or swap to the 99-00??

ok so here is where i stand right now, minus the lip and fogs, and i have the ek markers, and a smashed driver side fender cause some fuckhead backed into me... Image Plans for Spring:

1. Replace the fender
2. Replace the lip with a CTR lip
3. Have the whole car repainted
4. New CTR headlights
5. Spoon mirrors
6. Smash the altezza's and replace them with 99-00 stock taillights
7. Possibly new wheels (not real sure yet)

I just went markerless, and it makes me wish I never cut the fenders in the first place.
